Pathshala announces a 30-day International Photography Workshop designed for the students and aspiring professionals to develop crafts on working internationally and producing in-depth stories. The workshop will take participants through the complete chain of events that are involved in generating ideas to create stories, learning a wide variety of visual styles, contemporary narrative construction, developing local knowledge, questioning taboos and convention and finding innovative ways to engage with the audience etc. with day to day shooting, weekly reviews & critical feedback.

The prime destination of the workshop is ‘Cox’s Bazar’, known for the longest sea beach in the world with total area of 120 Kilometers. Mostly known as a tourist destination in Bangladesh, Cox’s Bazar offers multifaceted issues to locate beyond conventional stories on climate change. Down to southeast of Bangladesh, the place carries more complicated layers including cross-border issues, indigenous population, new immigrants, the transformation of economy, industry, and landscapes along with growing tourism. The newly built 80-kilometer-long Marine Drive recently connected Cox’s Bazar to Teknaf, the southernmost area of Bangladesh sharing a border with Myanmar. The road embraces hills one side and sea beach another side and not only contributes with scenic landscapes but also to the socio-economic development of the area of diverse ethnicities.

The workshop offers a positive and unique learning experience for the students who aspire to work on personal projects and freely experiment with the guidance from experts and transform works into long-term projects.
